Hotel The Edition, London
Expert reviews
“Step through the glass cube entryway and into the soaring marble lobby with its frothy belle epoque ceilings. Don’t let the scenesters in the lobby put you off. The friendly, unpretentious service and beautiful public spaces make for a standout stay.”
“Style and image are the draw at the London Edition Hotel where Michelin starred chefs and hip bars complement the boutique property’s sleek, contemporary image. Located in a desirable location just north of Oxford Street, the grand boutique hotel occupies a spot in the super central.”
Featured as Fodor’s Choice in London.
“From the outside, The London EDITION looks like a period Georgian hotel with its columned portico and intricate moldings. But notice the all-glass entrance doors? They are a hint of something more modern inside.”
“The London EDITION strikes the right balance between edgy and elegant. The minimalist rooms will appeal to lovers of modern luxury, as will the sultry Punch Room bar, while the magnificent Jason Atherton restaurant – with its glorious 19th-century ceiling – is an ode to the hotel’s historic past.”

Good location & interior, price is a bit expensive for what you get
The location and interior
There is no soundproof and our room was in front of service rooms so you always hear slamming of doors at all times.

Diasppointing and lost it's edge
Really lost its edge. Probably 4th time there. Room looking tatty. Holes /chips in corridor walls. Bar furniture tired. Bar service slow ( bar was not busy) . Uses the worlds noisiest suction system for toilet and shower so don't get up a for a 3 am pee or the whole of Oxford Street will know.There are much better places now for the cost. Makes me sad as it used to be great

Fabulous hotel in great location
Location, ambience, decor, bar, staff, room, concierge, breakfast were everything we were looking for.
Room size was slightly smaller than compared with other hotels in similar location. Pillows were fresh but too soft.

A corporate feeling hotel full of rooms and lack of spark.
The rooms inside were lovely. Staff were nice. Steak at Berner's Tavern nice. But not the best. Location ok-ish?
The staff as a whole were lovely and attentive, but perhaps not a huge amount of management to ensure everyone is on the same page and everything was running smoothly. A few details I picked up on - I asked for standard things like transfers to be booked which they were, but after I had to follow up as well as someone not assuring me of what time I needed to leave to be at Heathrow in time. felt quite nervous, and never actually met the concierge who was meant to be managing everything. (Traveling to NZ is a long way to go and needs lots of planning to make it as easy as possible). Also, I felt like it was a very corporate hotel and just a building full of rooms and bad paint jobs on the outside. To be fair I have stayed at some of the best hotels in London, so perhaps my standards are too high. But I would expect more of the Edition having stayed in their New York Hotel.

Up to standard
Quick check-in , way before room was supposed to be ready .
Very noisy dining room , especially during diner . Music too loud and not very suited to the venue in my opinion .

Decent Facilities, Poor Experience.
The location is very convenient, the lobby and entrance is impressive and the bed was comfortable. Nice soaps and towels in the bathroom. The breakfast options are decent and in the impressive berners tavern.
Lots! When you pay over £600 per night you expect a certain level of service. I was charged again for the room when I arrived. this wasn't refunded until the morning. There was a note left in the room for a different guest. They changed my room to one above the lobby, it was very noisy and the toilet / drainage system sounded like that on an aeroplane. I asked to have breakfast in my room, but it never arrived and I had to check out early to get to work, meaning I had to buy myself something on the way. There were some apologies for the experience, but the only remedy offered was a late check out which wouldn't help because I had to get to work.

Comfy beds, great location but not a 5 star hotel in my opinion.
The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. The family room consisted of 2 queen size beds.
The towels were not what I would expect from a 5 star hotel … not that soft. The lighting system in the room was TERRIBLE. Although all the staff was lovely, “ turn down “ service was sometimes in the late afternoon. There should have been more than one robe in the closet (another was brought up when asked). There should have been a tissue box in the bedroom. One of the lights in the bathroom never worked.

Excellent location of the hotel. Being close to both tottenham court road station and oxford circus makes it even better located. The size of the bathroom is very good. Also I really liked the fact I can sign in to netflix and youtube with my user id, have seen that in a hotel before.
Room could have been a little bigger.

Truly one of the best hotels in london.
- The staff and the service have exceeded my expectations. - The exceptionally unique design. - The shower toilets/ E-Bidet (not sure what it's called). - The high level of comfort. - The complimentary water and sweets. - The location. - The overall vibe. - The wooden card key is very cool. - The lobby. - The food.
- I wish all rooms included the E-Bidet/Shower toilet option. - I wish they sold serviced apartments/flats.

Poor
Location is amazing, but not worth the value.. Technical problems with washrooms, Contractors and Constuction was active next room, so much dodgy noise
22 January 2023
stylish but pricey hotel in great location with lovely staff
The decor oversell including the stylish bar areas, the comfortable beds and the location were all great. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. We were celebrating a family birthday and the hotel very kindly decorated the room, gave us a complimentary cake and round of drinks in the bar. A very special touch - thank you Barbara!
One of the rooms (standard queen room) was quite small for the price with no apparent ‘5 star’ touches.

Definitely not up to the high standards of other Edition hotels around the world.
The lobby had a lovely atmosphere, with the exception of the Christmas decoration, which was absolutely horrendous with what looked like an creepy lady hung from the ceiling with a long dress made out of dull coloured drapes. The other venue/restaurant within the hotel looked somewhat impressive with high ceiling and sense of space. The service throughout was relatively swift. Location of the hotel is great, sadly though, plenty of rubbish bags is often left not too far from the entrance.
The room ceiling is low, room lights are too dim and overall the room looked dull. The shower felt dark too with little to no light. The air-conditioner was noisy and required plenty of effort to attempt to warm the room that I just had to switch off. The room switches were flimsy as well as the elevator buttons. The mini-bar was not refreshed daily.

overall great stay at the hotel with my partner.
great hotel, no big complaints. little pricey, but it’s an edition hotel.
stiff bed for my taste, but bed sheets were impeccable. the sound isolation in the room was pretty bad. we could hear our neighbors at night, which was quite awkward.

Hi, It's have been my six time at this hotel. That means I like the hotel good - location, size of the rooms, facilities Need to improve - the receptionists not responsive enough (had two things I asked none of them was done until I asked for it later) To summarize - I recommend this hotel Ronen

clean, nice bar.
i liked the location and the architecture of the building. the rooms were comfortable and also new.
i didn’t like the minimalist feel of the bathrooms. there was nowhere to put my belongings in the bathroom. there’s a lack of shelving or something to put stuff on. I didn’t like how the property was unhelpful with accommodating a van for our group to take us to the airport for our departure. i called from my room and the front desk said they would get back to me and didn’t. I also had a problem with my phone in one of the two rooms we stayed in. I called to get the phone fixed and the person that came to fix it was extremely rude. he said that he had been working there for ‘many years’ and that I didn’t know what I was talking about when I didn’t know how to use the phone. apparently you’re not supposed to click on the guest services button on the phone, instead you’re supposed to dial +0. this doesn’t make sense to me; why would the pamphlet in the room pertaining to the room info say to press the guest services button, the phone has the guest services button, but then dial +0? it’s confusing to guests. I also didn’t think that the cost of our stay was worthwhile. there’s no spa at the hotel, no amenities other than the ones in our rooms.

Be careful of trusting the hotel in billings: it is sadly not transparent and fair.
Generally the location is fantastic and the staff seems to want to be accommodating but we stayed two weeks and gave them warning we may extend three or four days: we were assured we would be given the same rates as booking.com, and all along we believed it to be so, only to find out when we checked out that a surge pricing was implemented, and we were never told the charging would suddenly increase without notice and warning; nor were we told to book early because rates may go up. Surely I am sure the fine print would show I "agreed" to the terms, but having stayed in the best big chain and best botique hotel, I have never experienced this, and did not expect this at all. A warning to others to be careful of this hotel, which has a really great location.
It must be more transparent and it must warn its customers of this tactic of surge pricing, and suddenly the surge is not just on say a Saturday or a Friday, but the whole week becomes surge pricing! We were asking for a breakdown of the billing, and never got it once the surge pricing started. I know the hotel industry has been battered by Covid, but surely this is not the way to make the numbers. Apps like Uber havew more professionalism and transparency that surely the London Edition can learn from.
